Latham, Kan., Aug. 27. The United
Brethren camp-meeting that has been in
session here for the nast three weeks closed
last night. A deep interest has been mani-
f.-tA :
fested through the meeting and continued
to the close. Rev. D. "NV. Downey who
has been conducting the meeting leaves to
day for "Wichita where he has a call to
labor in revival work. The closing meet
ing last night was impressive. Rev. G. II.
Smith, presiding elder of the "Winlield dis-
trict, was present and preached an able dis
course and very favorably impressed his
hearers. The sacrament of the Lord's sup
per was observed and a large number
present partook.
Rev. S. Miller, of Leon, attended the
meetings and preached acceptably, he be
ing one of the most interesting " and able
speakers in attendance, and has won a place
in the affections of the people who have
heard him. The meeting has been one of
the most interesting and profitable that has
ever been held in this part of the country.
Many were converted, and some were add
ed to the church, and Elder Downey goes
from this place a ith the warm feelings of
those who have "been favored and benefited
by his ministerial labor, and he will be
kindly remembered by the people of this
community. S. E. 13.

Xew York, Aug. 27. Special telegrams
to Bradstreets' report a continuance of the
favorable trade features heretofore noted.
The movement of general merchandise is
fully equal to that in past weeks, while the
total returns for August tints far is equal
to and many points in excess of like periods
i j in preceeding years.
I he total bank earning at thirty cities
shows a decline of $90,06o,44S, of 10 1-2
per cent as compared with last week.
The shipments of dead freight cast from
Chicago show a marked increase as com
pared with last week, and the receipts of
i grain at primary markets are heavy.
1 he domestic money markets are tairly
firm, and at the east the demand is notably
in excess of the supply, owing to the
special demand at this time for funds to
pay for grain forwarded. It is noteworthy
that the demand for funds for u;e in
commercial and industrial enterprise at the
west continue large, the 2s ew lork stocs
market has been dull and heavy owing to
the stringency of the money market here,
the unsettled condition of the London mar
ket and the disturbed condition of politics
in eastern Europe.
The money market is firm; call loans
are six and eight per cent, and time loans
are live and -ix per cent, but are difficult
to obtain.
Foreign exchange is slightly firmer ow
ing to the advance in the bank of England
rate-

actions this week aggregate S-o.OUO shares,

$ 3.000,000, against $800,000 a week ago.
The dry goods trade with eastern jobbers
is quite active; with agents moderate. Ow
ing to the reclassification of railway freight
rates on dry goods shipments from New
York have increased very materially. Sales
of woolen dress good, both American and
foreign, have been heavy.
CoUon flannels have aUo been in active
demand. Plain cottons have advanced in
price since June M, 1-4 to 3-S cents per
yard.
The distribution of clothing is active.
Print cloths are steady at "unchanged
prices.
Pig-iron is very firm and any material
gain in demand is likely to cause an in
crease in prices. Southern iron is GO cents
higher per ton; ilniseed iron is higher, per.
haps . per cent, owing to the improved re
quest. Scotch irons are higher, about 2-H
per cent per ton. Old rail are stiff at $34
.10 per ten, at which figure makers are re
ceiving anbout $7 profit. Zo advance is
probable in the near future.
The Kansas corn crop v.ili be larger
than expected which has helped trade" in
that region.
The spring wheat crop in Minnesota is
also in excess of late anticipations, and
prices of wheat have declined to some ex
tent owing to expectation of heavy deliver
ies to the increased visible supply and to
freer selling bv holders.
Cotton reports are more favorable though
some damage has been done by storms In
southwestern Texas.

Lewistowk. Mo., Aug. 27. About
4,000 persons attended a Republican cam
paign meeting at South Paris, this evening
which was addressed by Jas. G. Blaine and
Gen. Gibson of Ohio. Mr. Blaine ridiculed
the idea that the Democratic party would
be instrumental in promoting the cause of
prohibition. Tie declared that the Repub
lican party had neyr waivered in support
er prohibition. Mr. liiame predicted that
within six months Gen. Dow and other
third party leaders would be sorry for their
present course and.would be willing to ac
knowledge their mistake.
He did not wish to be understood as say
ing the recent labor troubles were the result
of a Democratic administration, but there
was a suspicious contemporaneousness
about it which the Democratic party should
be called unon to explain. lie said; "NTiv
was it that as soon as that party got into
power and lwgan to agitate the tariff ques
tion there were labor disorders? For fifty
years the Democrats had fought against
protection, and were still fighting it, and as
long as they had a chance of success there
would be hber troubles.

The answer of J. Harris Rogers to Attor
ney General Garland's cross-bill in the siut
of the former against Mr. Garland for dam
ages growing out of the Pan-electric con
troversy, wa; filed in the supreme court of
the District of Columbia today. In his
answer Mr. Rogers denies all these allega
tions which are intended to support the de
fendant's prayer for a "dissolution" of the
Pan-electric telephone company. Respond
ent admits, as s; t forth in Garland's an
swer, that he L. wholly 'unreliable," if it
be meant that corrupt politici-uis cannot
rely on him ti co-operate with them in their
nefarious designs to run the United States
patent office and the department of justice,
under secret compats to advance private
interest, as charged in the bill of com
plaints, but if it be meant that honorable
men cannot rely on him he denies the alle
gation. Respondent further denies that
the ju-tice. propriety or expediency of dis
solving or "winding up" the Pan-Electric
company, for which purpo-e it is sought
to make the defendant' answer a cross
bill, and the respondent advies the court
that such a dissolution would be disastrous
to all parties concerned, except the defend
ants, whose tock is really the property of
the respondent its is shown in hi bill; that
it would entail irremediable losses on this
respondent, on hundreds of innocent stock
holders in the parent company, and also in
the suoordmate companies whoe stock has
been sold in many ease to widows and or
phans, and their money transferred to the
pockets f defendant Garland.
Respondent further submits to the court
that when defendant gives as ins reason for
such "dissolution" that he wihes to get
rid of respondent, he contradicts his own
statement, to-wit: The said complainant.
a3 defendant is informed and lelieves, and
so charges, ha sold or disposed of a hirge
part if not his entire interest in said joint
property and has realized some
.-? JO, 000" or fjO.OOO for the same. Re
spondent therefor e submits that the pre
text aforesaid for "dissolution" is a mere
sham, conceived in malice anil born in
falsehood. He further submits that
the said Pan-electric Telephone company
is no party to this cause; that the right of
subpeona is as old as the equity practice,
and that even an attorney general is bound
to bring parties into cosirt before their
cau-e can be tried.
And dually respondent submits that all
the allegations of defendant in that Lelmlf
tending to support a monotrous proceeding
as aforesaid are not only untrue and reck
less in the extreme, but most impertmen
and scandalous.

London, Aug. 27. In his reference to
land purchase in his speech in the house of
commons last night during debate on the
address in reply o the queen's speech, Mr.
Chamberlain said he would always favor a
large scheme of state aid to land purchases
in Ireland as long as that country remained
au integral portion of the United kingdom,
but he objected to lending under the inse
cure conditions of Mr. Gladstone's plan to
what would practically be a foreign coun
try. If the government would introduce a
well-considered scheme for the creation of
peasant proprietary in Ireland under the
effective control of the imperial parliament
and with security from municipal author
ities. Mr. Chamberlain promised to give it
cordial support.
Authentic information has reached here
in regard to the movements of Prince
Alexander. He landed at Rcni, in the
Russian province of Bessarabia, Wednes
day. On leaving the yacht in which he
had been transported to that point he made
a brief farewell address to the commander
and escort in which he expresacd regret at
leaving Bulgaria. He declared, he v. ould
never cease to take profound iuterest in
Bulgaria's future. He had no deeper de
sirelhan for Bulgaria's happiness and pros
perity. Toward this end he had ever la
bored with his whole heart. His earnest
wish in the pre-ent -juncture was that Bul
garia should choose another prince to rule
over her who would be as devoted to the
welfaro of me country.
Prince Alexander was expected to ar
rive at Lemburg yesterday morning, where
delegates -out from the army and people
to repreccnt to him the situation in Bulga
ria, and to in ite him back to assume the
reins of government, were awaiting him.
The Bulgarians are practically unanimous
in their demand for Prince Alevander's re
turn to Rustchuck. As a result of the un
derstanding reached by the adherents-of
Prince Alexander at Sofia and Tiernova a
council of regency has been formed con
sisting of Messrs " Stambouloff, GlovcscolT
Xatchoviech. Col. Monteroll has been ap
pointed commander-in-chief a long as the
state of seige lasts.
The reply of the czar to the orders ent
to him by the Zankoll government is frig
Idly worded, although he promises to pro
tect Bulgaria. The porte has received re
plie from various powers announcing
Prince Alexander's deposition with the ex
ception of Italy. The different govern
ments merely note the contents of the cir
cular,rcervfngall ulterior communication.
The reply of Italy, in addition, recognizes
the porte"- right "to protest against the il
legality of Prince Alexander's deposition.
"ilr.'Parnells amendment was rejected
by a vote of 04 to l.l. Lord Hartington,
Mr. Chamberlain and the Unionists sup
ported the government. Sir William Ver
non llarcourt abstained from voting and
Mr. Morley voted with the minority. The
announcement of the result caused little
excitement.
In the house of commons tocLr." Lord
Randolph Churchill gave notice that the
government would propose the abolition of
the secret service fund which amounts to
10,000 pounds yearly. This announce
ment was greeted with cheers.
Mr. Gladstone's brochure on the Ireland
question wa.- ptibli-hed today. I contains
fifty-eight pages and is sim
ilar in the excellence of it style
to Mr. Glad-tone's pamphlet on the Bul
garian atrocities. At the outet Mr. Glad
stone compares it with the apology he
wrote on his change of attitude regarding
the Irish church. But, he continued, in
the present case I have no change to indi
cate but have only to point out the mode in
which mv language and conduct were gov
erned by uniformity of principle. I have
simply " followed "the various stages by
which the great question of antonomy for
Ireland has ijeea brought to the stage of
riponesi for practical legislation.
The brochure is under two heads; the
first is the history of an idea in which Mr.
Gladstone summarizes the following con
ditions under which alone, in his view, can
home rule become possible: First Tfie
The abandonment of the hope that parlia
ment could serve a- a possible legislative
instrument for Ireland. .Seeoikl The un
equivocal and constitutional demand of th
Irish member-. I mrd Ine poscibmty of
dealing with N-utiaiul in a siniilnr way in

was a- car. v u- il, Mr. Gladstone says,
that hi look the Jir-l -tep towards placing
the controversy rin its true bast-.
j To the dec loral ("unpaign of 1S85, ir.
j Gladstone a hi- great object was to do
nothing to hinder tae prosecution of the
question by the Tories, but to use his bast

! importance and urgency oi the question.

Fkankenst.vht. Aug. 27. De Giers is
sues a circular declaring the czar does not
approve the methods employed in deposma
Alexander. He says he was as much sur
prised as anybody over the event and Rus
sia was first'to ufge a reversal of that a :
tion. The promptness with which the
Bulgarian acted shows their friendliness
for Russia. De Gier pays a high tribute
to Alexander, but think he ii not the man
to govern Bulgaria and hopes he will vol
untarily renew the abdication forced upon
him.
BLsmark and De Giers had a conference
today, after which the former departed for
Berlin.
Lemberg, Aug. 20. -Prince Alexander
arrived here afternoon. He was received
at the railroad by Court Marshal Rcidsel
and Court Chaplm Xech. The prince, on
appearing at the window of the railway
carriage, was given au ovation by thou--auds
of Germans and Poles who raised en-
thusiastic cheers and waved haudkerchiefs
and hats, and indulged m other joyful
demonstration. The town is brilliantly il
luminated tonight. Alexander will proceed
to Bres.ulan tomorrow.

Belfast. Aug. 27. A meeting of Or

protested against the charges that Orange
men were responsible for the riots and de
clared them to be utterly untrue.

Chicago, Aug. 27. Charley Velfeka,
aged 10, living at Xo, L"5 Zion place, was
tempted to run and play yesterday without
his father's consent and came near paying
the penalty "with his life. The neighbor's
boys with" whom he had committed the
transgression not hearing any sounds of

They were shocked to see the" little fellow
hanging to a post on the wood-hl appar

around hi neck and chest and his arms
were extended and tied to other jwinls of
the wall. He was black in the face and
unconscious.
A cry that Charley was dead or dying

the adjoining house, went out to see what

Welcome Home.
Manhattan, Kan., Aug. 27. A gen
uine Kaus:i ovation was" tendered. Hon.
John A. Anderson on his arrival here to
day. It was spontaneous sad. enthusiastic
and engaged in by all classes, regardless of
politics. "
Over athousand people, including the
Flambeau club, Grand Army post and
land met him at the depot and escorted
him to his home. Tonight an informal
outdoor reception was given in hi honor.
Prof. G. T. F:urchilds, president of the
-tale agricultural college, delivered the ad
dress of welcome. Ho spoke c-f Mr. Au-der-on
as a man, as a citizen, as a faithful
officer and as a Christian gentleman, whose
life for eighteen years liad been under the
closest scrutiny, and yet no neighbor had
ever been able" to find one single llaw. The
address was cheered to the echo by the
thousands who filled the streets.
Mr. Anderson rosj-oaded with filing,
showing that he was deeply touched by the
demonstration. Hon. W. W. Walton, of
fame is not confined to our city and county
The speeches were all free from political
alluaion, and the demonstration simph
emphasizes the claim made by Mr. Ander
son's friends that the purity of his home
life, his unselfish devotion to hU friends and
his clean public record entitles htm to the
respect and good will of his neighbors.
